Meraki DataMagic - Ports

 Introduction

In Meraki DataMagic Ports can be:

  • Physical Ports (eg WAN1, Switch port 05, AP LAN port)
  • Wifi Channels (e.g. wifi0, wifi1, wifi2)

Much information can be obtained about ports.  If you have configured SNMP access for an organization, Meraki DataMagic will attempt to collect usage data with high frequency (once every 5 minutes).

Because there are so many columns of data, two screenshots are shown here of the same rows:

Second set of columns

Note that different ports have different information available.  This is down to the information available via the Meraki API and SNMP MIB.
